A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT...

Hello HBCU family and supporters,

We are excited to announce our 14^th Annual Atlanta HBCU 5K Run/Walk!

Last year was a breakthrough year for our race as we raised more scholarship funds than any year during

the history of this Run/Walk. We could not have done this without your support! Thank you for showing up

and helping support our metro Atlanta students and HBCUs in the midst of all of the challenges we faced as

a nation in 2020. Without question our motto, “Together we win!” came alive as our Atlanta HBCU community

rallied and showed that resilience and giving back is what makes up our proud HBCU legacy. Because of

your support, we were able to provide $125,000 in scholarship funds to metro Atlanta students attending

HBCUs – Thank you!

This year we are taking our virtual experience to another level by expanding our love of competition and

fundraising and challenging our HBCU communities in Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia. We know how

our HBCU alumni and Greek families love good old fashion competition. Let's show 'em how fundraising is

done by holding down our city and supporting our students like we have never done before!

Please note, as we plan for our race, your safety remains our primary focus so we are planning to continue

to host this race as a virtual race this year and will have our week long race close out similar to last year.

As always, we thank you for your ongoing support and look forward in having you join us this year as we

continue our endeavor of giving back to our HBCU students because, "Together we win!".

Continue to stay safe and make plans to get your COVID vaccine shot as soon as you can.

With much HBCU Pride!

Dan Ford
President

We are still VIRTUAL!!!

Run or walk a 5k on the treadmill, around your neighborhood, your favorite walking trail or your own backyard anytime between Friday, June 25th and Friday, July 2nd. Registration will remain open during Race Week.
